Too narrow carriageway

At present at the bus stop on the east side of Heol Y Deri outside the Spar the footway kerbing is staggered such that it protrudes into the carriageway. With the recent parking area changes vehicles are allowed to park directly opposite the bus stop. The carriageway width available when a vehicle is parked there is too narrow for vehicles passing each way to pass each safely. Also when a bus is at this bus stop the gap between the parked vehicle and the side of the bus is too narrow for a vehicle to safely pass the bus and parked vehicle. There have been numerous confrontations and near misses regarding this problem. Would you please inspect this area and arrange for the kerbing to be set back towards the bus shelter. You may also feel that the bus shelter should intself be moved back as well. Many thanks.
